pg-180 12/12 from seed

Man, That shit would stress me out, I might even hermie myself! lol.

Seriously though. Even if I couldn't provide the proper lighting/lumens/par/whatever, I'd at least try to give them light as per their schedule. But it sounds like you know this and you have it under control already. Smoke up, Relax and good luck, man!

haha yeah it is very stressful. expecially when we talk to the apts and they say they need the energy people to call them. and when we talk to the energy comp. they tell us that the apts need to call them. its total bullshit. im going to forsure figure this out tomorrow im just gonna camp in the office bothering them till its fixed i hate hotels.

so i looked up how long plants can go without lights and people had experiences of up to a week without light and the plants being fine. so the lights will stay off. there will still be a problem with humidity so i have added a battery powered fan that i bought today to the tent to push the air out. i have also opened the tents door flap things to let it circulate some. even tho it is so stagnant in a house with no electricity.

Crazy shit dude! I'd be all over my electrical company like white on rice. Fuck that shit. I know you have to tread carefuly, but go get 'em. It's inhumane to do that to someone.

Ugh. Fucking run around is what it sounds like.

March on down to the apt office and make them get in touch with the energy dept while your there. If not, Buy a six pack grab a pillow and camp inside the office until they do. Maybe let them know that you'll be subtracting money from your rent as a penalty for every day you dont have electricity. Tell them you have a baby, A cat with asthma, And old lady living with you or some such other bullshit and you absolutely need power for there humidify or a/c unit or something. lol.

Ok, I'll stop. hehe. good luck. Keep us informed.

Aside from the shit you've been dealing with from the electric companies what do you think of the PG-180?

haha ^^ thats funny idk why it just made me laugh haha but its nice they perk up alot and it covers pretty much my whole tent even tho it is only 3 feet tall. and my plants love it.


so an update with the electricity. after 2 days in a hotel they said the part would take around 2 weeks to order. they said they can move us to a sister apt but they are 10+ miles away and we like the location. so we did some searching and found a couple of apts availible for move in yesterday. we got one in a complex that is alot nicer and we really like our new apt. its 100 dollars more a month but i like the whole place alot better than where i was. alot more friendly and you can tell there are less problems no one is ever in the office complaining about something which is good. so i moved the plants last night to the new place and got them under the lights. the bag seed is forsure a male with a big cola of balls so i cut them off so i can manage the balls easier and will be able to gather pollen easier. my old apts are paying for most of everything. days we didnt have lights. food that went bad. the got us a pretty nice hotel the last night. and they are paying for our movers which is pretty sweet. its still a hassle but i feel like it will be worth it in the long run. probably wont update till sometime saturday or sunday since that is when the cable guys are coming to set it up. its exciting to be at a new place but also kinda sad. and a huge hassle to move. but im ready to leave these apts.


my girls mom said her friend said that since they changed the ac wires they would pull in alot more energy to the older wires around and would cause them to surge if that makes sense.

Nice growing I cant wait to see the cheese.

The PG 180 Is absolutely amazing. High quality lights and the warranty is the best. Also, its one of the only lights that give around the same output it says; its around 150-160 watts of true output. Thats amazing and more output than the BS 240! Those dudes at PG respond quickly to anything. Im sure if you send them a mail they will give you a discount like they did me, I got 20 bucks off my pg 180! Never gets hot to the touch. I just cant say anymore good things about the light. Works perfectly.

Im sure there is more PG 180 growers out there. Im one of them. Glad to find more. Check out my pg 180 grow I just posted, going on 3rd week flowering.

haha dang i should of emailed them! yeah it is nice the warranty was the selling point. there arnt many leds with warranties. i will forsure check yours out! i should be on week 3 of flowering as well but the lights were out for 4 days so it will set me back a week or two probably.

You'll get there. Especially with both switches switched on for full power.

You guys are making me lean heavily towards the pg180 I was considering the Blackstar 240 but now well. Yeah haha

BS 240 doesnt even give out what they say it should. Theres a chart online, im sorry I forgot where, that shows you a list of Advertised Wattage, and actual wattage. And PG has the best warranty. GL with your choice.

I love my pg 180's. And Ben at the hut has treated me well despite what other members of the board have to say. I got 2 for $540 so it pays to email them. They were actually my second and third pg 180s. I have had great results with mine. I have 2 in a 3x2 tent, may be over kill, but they are killing it. I scrogged a super lemon haze and it's a couple weeks into flowering. I can't post pictures yet but I will when it's over!

95% (totally made up number) of led panels advertise their wattage incorrectly, it isn't exclusively a BS thing. LED distributors market their panels as maximum draw, not actual.

That being said a BS240 draws about 130w and a PG180 draws about 160w. PG has the better warranty. For the same price i think it's obvious who the better choice is.

i finally got my internet back!! but the cable guy saw my tent and a bong and some jars... dont know what to do.

why would you let him see that shit^^......what state do you live in? because I would seriously think about breaking down the grow....sorry to hear this/good luck

Ugh. I doubt the guy gives a crap, They see shit like that all the time.

There is really only two options, Take your shit down and get rid of the plants until you feel safe or take the chance the guy wont do anything (That'd be my guess) and just be more careful next time.

I wouldn't have let him into the closet/grow room. If he said he had to get to something I would've just stopped him and told him to come back another time but whats done is done. Good luck man.

yeah i think its is fine he didnt seem to care and nothing has happened so far. its only 2 plants. nothing big. we have alot of veggies outside on our porch tho. he could of thought it was more veggies inside idk. but i probably wont do anything. im helping out the economy by paying for electricity and buying local purified water to grow for myself to stop helping fund the violence in the black market.

there is one problem tho. at the last place the bedroom and bathroom were connected by the closet which got cooled by both. not we only have a one door closet and it gets hot in there. ill have to figure something out.

took some pics with the lights off so used the flash. killed the male life is to hecktic to deal with the balls and pollen. but the cheese and unknown are looking good the seedling hasnt grown much.

Thats funny to me... I go onsite all the time to help people here in cali and I always run into homes with multiple bongs out. Lots of times I see prescription bottles of weed. This one guy had at least a few ounces out on the table. Doesn't matter much though because cali is friendly.
